Scientists Map Fruit Fly Brain, Breakthrough For Human, Animal Insights
Scientists announced on Thursday a milestone in neurobiological research with the mapping of the entire brain of an adult fruit fly, a feat that may provide insight into brains across the animal kingdom, including people.

New Study Reveals the Brain Stores Multiple Copies of Every Memory
Recent research sheds new light on how the brain stores and manages memories, revealing that it maintains at least three distinct copies of each memory. This study, conducted on rodents, provides valuable insights into the brain's memory encoding process and suggests that multiple types of neurons play a role in storing these memories. The research...
